Pictures (well, A picture) are starting to surface of the costume for the new Wonder Woman TV show. Kudos for giving her long pants rather than run around in a swimsuit, but surely the cosplayers at SDCC could have given them tips for making a costume that doesn’t look like a cheesy plastic mess.

Yeah, that’s right…This week has earned an exclamation point and a trip to a PG-13 movie. It’s a jumbo-sized batch of comics this week!

ASTRO CITY #1 – Great call on DC’s part my making the first issue of this stellar series available for only a dollar. If any of the series they’re promoting will hook readers and suck them into buying more comics, it will be this one. We don’t spend a lot of time discussing Astro City here — probably because of it’s somewhat erratic schedule — but Matt and I are both big fans of this book.

BATMAN RETURN OF BRUCE WAYNE #3 (OF 6) – Caveman Batman? Check. Pilgrim Batman? Got it. Pirate Batman… This week! I expected that we’d only see Batman in different time periods thoughout this mini, but there’s definitely a coherent story between his time-jumps…And the Justice League’s attempts to stop him have got me hooked. Thank you, Grant Morrison!

SUPERMAN #700 – Despite not reading any of the Robinson run and not planning to read the Strazcynski run, I probably shouldn’t pick this up. But I’m a sucker for an anniversary issue, and the transition stories (ending New Krypton by Robinson and starting up whatever JMS is planning) mean I can stay somewhat current on Superman current events without actually putting up the time or money to read the whole things.
